#17
OK, so, i just spent 2 hrs looking through the history of the car.... and i found instructions!!! tucked between some invoices from '98? but the work was done in 01 so that's why i didn't find it before....
i don't know if it vetesse though.... its just printed word documents with no names anywhere....
^^the picture shows vetesse written on the chip^^<<correction
it says:
0 & 4: +00% fuel
1 & 5: +05% fuel
2 & 6: -05% fuel
3 & 7: +10% fuel
4,5,6,7: Less Timing
so i would think i could start at "2" and then "6" if i get some knock? since im running rich? remember it was at "0"
input?

well, i would say everywhere. it back fires on downshifts even when im not getting on it... and anytime i give it gas to pass someone or from a stop sign its smells pretty bad. even at idle it smells...<<like fuel
i have it on 2 right now but havnt driven it yet.... i will see how it does on the way to work and if its not that great then i will change it to 6 and see what it does on the way home...

Smells like fuel. Is this smell "raw fuel" or exhaust fuel (rich)? You could have a fuel leak. The fuel rails are famous for leaking. Also, there is a black plastic cover under the rear hatch carpet. If that's missing or out of place it will smell like fuel in your car.

It's a rich smell, I know the difference.... I have only had the car for about a year and a half and all I know is that it was like this since I bought the car.... It's annoying more than anything.... It's not so bad it could kill you, it's just bad enough that my wife can smell it on me when I come home from work or somewhere I was driving my car... She says I smell like my *****.. Lol
I had it set to 2 and it barely wantedto run... Same with 6... I looked up some stuff and found another set of directions someone posted on here from their vetesse stuff and it said 1-55#/2-55#-2 so I moved it to 1 and it ran better but still not right... Then I moved it to 5 and ran smooth and responsive and felt better than ever but still had small backfires here and there and smelled a bit.. Not as bad but still a little.... I set the fuel pressure to 3 bar

I replied to your email twice already, might need to check your SPAM filter.
The FQS settings are unique per chip/board and are supplied at the time of the purchase. Guessing on the settings can be dangerous! Do you have the FQS document for your setup?
I would go back to FQS "0" and fix the "real" cause of the problem. The FQS is just masking it..
Where are you located?
